Deciding which Call of Duty Black Ops game to play can be a tough choice, especially when it comes to the multiplayer experience. A Reddit user, Red_PineBerry, reached out to the community seeking guidance on whether to dive into Black Ops 2 or Black Ops 3.

Summary

  • BO2 and BO3 both have their pros and cons for PC players, from low player counts to security issues
  • BO2 offers a great multiplayer experience but suffers from dwindling player populations
  • BO3 introduces better movement mechanics but may come with security concerns
  • Huntsmanbravo

    If you are on PC, both BO2 and BO3 suffer from low player counts. Depending on region and time of day, you may be able to find lobbies of Core TDM but anything beyond that is unlikely. The only Black Ops game’s multiplayer that is well populated on PC is BOCW.

    I never understood the hype around BO2, been playing non stop since MW and once Ghosts hit, BO2 wasn’t touched again. BO3 was on a whole new level of fun for me, so good that I kept playing it from release to 2020 when MW19 toppled it.
